  • AI Is Taking Over, Things That Aren’t Free Anymore & Made by BE Studios
    2026/09/10

    Thursday, September 10, 2026

    Brock and Danielle are back together, and this episode starts with one of the most random questions yet: When you hit backspace, where do all those deleted letters actually go? Apparently, there’s a whole imaginary world of unemployed characters waiting to be typed again.

    Brock also officially introduces Made by BE Studios, the newest arm of Brock Entertainment focused on podcast recording and production in Northwest Arkansas. From People of Northwest Arkansas and NWA Hard Knocks to the growing lineup of locally produced shows, Brock talks about how podcast production has grown into a business of its own.

    Then it’s time to talk AI. Brock shares how he’s using it to build websites, work through thousands of songs for Sam’s Furniture Radio, organize music by genre and tempo, research potential clients, draft emails, and automate hours of work that used to be done manually. Danielle has a slightly more cautious approach, and the two debate just how much thinking we should actually hand over to technology.

    Plus, what happened to all the things that used to be free? Airline bags, seat selection, concert tickets without ridiculous fees, Disney FastPass, pizza delivery, internet content, and even chips and salsa have somehow become another charge.

    There’s also NFL talk, everyday inconveniences that drive us crazy, pumpkin spice season, celebrity news, a toddler who somehow knows more NFL quarterbacks than most adults, good news, weird facts, and plenty of the usual tangents.

    AI, coffee, cars, football, pumpkin spice and the things that make everyday life unnecessarily complicated. Just another morning with Brock and Danielle.

  • Common Sense, Hard Knocks & a Run-In with Ted Bundy
    2026/09/08

    Monday, September 7, 2026

    It’s a full house with Brock, Dana, and Amanda, and the question of the day is simple: How do you describe someone who just doesn’t have any common sense? From “not the brightest crayon in the box” to “couldn’t pour water out of a boot with instructions on the heel,” the insults get creative quickly.

    Dana and Amanda also make a big announcement: NWA Hard Knocks is officially launching. They share why they created the podcast, their desire to spotlight Northwest Arkansas nonprofits, people who have overcome difficult circumstances, and organizations that could use more volunteers, funding, and attention.

    Then the conversation takes a wild turn into true crime, including the unbelievable story of how Ashton’s grandmother was once approached by Ted Bundy in Utah and nearly got into his car before realizing something wasn’t right.

    Plus, Dana shares her first-class flying experience and an absolutely bizarre trip to St. Augustine involving a starfish, a rocket launch, a deer watching from the beach, a baby sea turtle, and a close encounter with a snake.

    There’s also Labor Day chaos, Family Feud, the hardest-working states in America, things that were supposed to be huge but completely flopped, celebrity gossip, parenting stories, ADHD tangents, weird news, and plenty of conversations that go exactly where you wouldn’t expect.

    It’s common sense, true crime, new beginnings, weird stories, and a whole lot of laughs on Brock in the Morning.

  • From Pro Basketball to Music Producer: Meet Ian Carter
    2026/09/04

    Wednesday, September 2, 2026

    Brock welcomes Ian Carter to the studio for his first-ever radio show and podcast appearance, and there’s a lot more to Ian than meets the eye.

    At 6'8", Ian shares his journey from playing college basketball at Drury University to taking his career overseas, where basketball took him through Spain, Italy, Germany, Cameroon and Nigeria. He even got the chance to watch Kobe Bryant play with Team USA and see Lionel Messi and Neymar live in Barcelona.
    These days, Ian has traded the basketball court for the recording studio, working as a music producer at Memento Studios in Springfield while living in Northwest Arkansas. He and Brock talk about chasing careers you actually love, the changing game of basketball, music, sports, life overseas and what eventually brought Ian home.

    Of course, it’s still Brock in the Morning, so the conversation goes everywhere. They debate whether Thanksgiving really is the greatest holiday, tailgating versus watching the game at home, the rules of eating leftovers, Airbnb guests who forget they’re not alone, and the everyday activities that somehow qualify as extreme sports.

    Plus, there’s weird news, random facts, celebrity gossip, good news, plenty of basketball talk, and Ian officially gets his first taste of being behind the microphone.

    A former professional basketball player, a music producer, a 6'8" first-time radio guest, and four hours of completely unpredictable conversation. Welcome to the show, Ian Carter.

  • The Most Hated Things Ever, Prince’s Paisley Park & Internet Conspiracies
    2026/08/25

    Tuesday, August 25, 2026

    What is the most universally hated thing in human history? Mosquitoes? Wet socks? Stubbing your toe? Biting the inside of your cheek? Brock and Danielle kick things off with a question that has way too many correct answers.

    Brock also shares the story of hilariously embarrassing his daughter during a FaceTime call with her friends—and her ex-boyfriend—before taking us inside his trip to Minneapolis and a tour of Prince’s Paisley Park, complete with the recording studios, Purple Rain memorabilia, motorcycles, costumes and the massive venue Prince had built right into the property.

    Then things get more serious as Brock and Danielle discuss the Lindsay Clancy trial, the conspiracy theories spreading across social media, and how quickly internet sleuths can turn a tragic case into online speculation.

    Plus: Gen Z declares more Millennial trends officially uncool, questionable baby names, National Treasure, The Sixth Sense, pumpkin spice season, celebrity news, random facts and plenty of conversations that go completely off the rails.

    It’s another unpredictable Tuesday on Brock in the Morning.

  • Is It Cheating? The Things That Cross the Line
    2026/08/24

    Thursday, August 20, 2026

    What actually counts as cheating? Secret friendships, deleting messages, keeping in touch with an ex, late-night conversations, flirty texts—Brock and Dana go through 10 things people consider cheating, and some of the percentages are surprisingly low.

    We’re also asking parents to finish the sentence: “Once you have a kid, you can’t ____.” From sleeping in and eating a snack alone to having a clean car for more than 11 minutes, the answers are painfully accurate.

    Plus, Brock has an idea that needs to exist: an entire vacation town permanently stuck in the 1990s—complete with Blockbuster, old-school Pizza Hut, VHS tapes, retro McDonald’s and ’90s movies.

    There’s also SOAR NWA, the worst drivers in America, work-lunch etiquette, a bear stealing leftover KFC, backwards songs, celebrity news and plenty of random conversations along the way.

    It’s relationships, parenting, ’90s nostalgia and the usual morning-show chaos on Brock in the Morning.

  • Conspiracy Theories, Love Languages & Danielle Is Back!
    2026/08/19

    Tuesday, August 18, 2026

    Danielle is back in the studio, and this episode goes from sweet to strange in record time.

    We start with a surprisingly wholesome question: What does your partner do that makes you feel loved every day? From making coffee and putting the kids to bed to random forehead kisses and small acts of service, listeners share the little things that matter most.

    Then we head straight down the rabbit hole.

    Brock and Danielle break out the conspiracy theories: Did we really land on the moon? Are aliens actually time travelers? Is the Earth hollow? What really happened with JFK and 9/11? Could we be living in a simulation? And, most importantly… are birds even real? 😂

    Plus, we recap an incredible weekend at SOAR NWA, talk hot-air balloons and the perfect music for a balloon glow, debate America's favorite sodas, discover some truly questionable new food creations, and dive into AI getting so good that it can completely rewrite the ending of your favorite movies.

    And because it's Brock in the Morning, there's plenty of weird news, celebrity gossip, random facts, bad jokes, and conversations that probably shouldn't have made it on the air.

    Danielle is back. The rabbit holes are deep. Let's get weird.

    2026/08/16

    Thursday, August 12, 2026

    Dana is back in the studio with Brock, and this one goes exactly where you'd expect—which means absolutely everywhere.

    The morning kicks off with a question that gets people talking: What are some creepy things men do that they somehow think are completely okay? From love bombing and uncomfortable compliments to asking someone if they live alone, Brock and Dana break down the answers coming in from listeners.

    Then things get wonderfully random.

    They talk UFOs, accidentally getting free stuff at Buc-ee's, hot-air balloon adventures, Taylor Swift, Britney Spears' latest antics, whether bath towels really need to be washed after every use, lottery winners with unbelievable luck, and why surgeons who play video games might actually be better at their jobs.

    Brock also reveals how ChatGPT helped him get down to an insane 3% body fat, which naturally leads to Dana trying to convince him that his next move should be entering a bodybuilding competition.

    Plus, Dana shares what's next for her—including plans for a new podcast—and Brock previews SOAR NWA, featuring 30 hot-air balloons and raising money for Open Avenues.
    Creepy guys, celebrity chaos, questionable hygiene habits, 3% body fat, and Dana back behind a microphone. What else could you possibly need from a morning show?

    Brock and Dana catch up on life, getting older, bargain hunting, travel, Christmas concerts, and the big question of the day: if you could delete one thing from the earth forever, what would it be? Mosquitoes? Debt? Social media? Calories? The possibilities get dangerous pretty quickly.

    The conversation takes plenty of turns along the way, including awkward viral moments, AI influencers, customer-service nightmares, bad drivers, celebrity gossip, first-class flying, and whether technology is making everyday life easier or somehow more frustrating.
